Mackie's official recommendation for the pots is to just blow out the
dust with compressed air and not use a cleaner. I think they were
afraid that if they didn't specify a brand people might get the greasy
kid stuff, and if they did specify a brand they'd feel responsible for
pots failing (maybe years) after a cleaning.


I remember when their first mixers came out, they made a point of the pots
being sealed, and none of this stuff would be needed. You'd know betterm
of course, since you wrote a lot of their manuals.


I use CRC QD Electronic Cleaner. Only if the pot is then too dry and rough
do I put a little DeOxit in it.
